Time to Come Clean

For the past four days, I've been on an island in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean. I scheduled a number of posts to appear after I was gone. (Pretty sneaky, right?) Unfortunately, I wasn't able to write more than four in advance! So this will be the last post until Thursday. Which is sad. But look at it this way. There will be tons of stuff to discuss when I'm back!

WHAT!?! leaving us AGAIN? you are a cruel, sick persxon if you think this is funny. how could you? we'll miss yuou so much! how will i survive without any posts until THURSDAY?!?!?! tell me THAT, if youre so smart. which you are. darn it! nevermind...

or is it something else that if u tell on your blog the authorities will check u?

okay.... maybe those ideas aren't right, but how am i supposed to wait that long. and also wasn't there a recent post about something that happened the day before you posted it and if it was posted automatically, then you are very sneaky.........

more proof that you are really up to something, you posted this the day after you were 'back', :Wednesday, April 02, 2008Amazing Footage from the BBC!

This was posted on the BBC's website yesterday! (April 1, 2008) Thanks to the lovely team of Francesca and Genevieve for sending it to me.posted by Kiki Strike: Inside the Shadow City at 4:12 PM 18 comments

Well, you can't have been on the island of oddities for more thsn (checks blog) five days because it says that you posted a comment on the post about underwater subway cars on April 9th. Unless, you hired someone to post a comment (ah, I just love a good mystery. WE do them as tests in our school).

Noooo! Don't leave us! Oh well, you have left an air (or what ever that word is) of mystery... so I can think about that instead.WHAT ARE YOU DOING ON AN ISLAND????I am seriose. Tell me!! Does it have to do with digging again?Sorry if I sound nosyor hyper...but I must know!

ANANKA!!! Okay... Random question: What's the next Kiki Strike book about!?!? ('cuz I dreamed it was something about New York getting melted in acid rain... AND GLOWING GREEN!! XD) Please tell me it's not gonna be that!!! >.<

Ok, guys. Give ananka some space. Her whole life ISN'T on this blog, you know. She has to do things for herself sometimes, too. And if that's being on some island in the atlantic ocean, then, yeah, let her do it.

Besides, it's already Tuesday night. We can live without for a day or two. Think about what Kiki would want; us to be grumbling about ananka not writing, or trying to figure out WHY she isn't writing? Which island could she be on? Why would she be there? Just a vacation, research for the next book, or something else? Is there anything suspicious going on? Come on girls (and guys)! Be the Irregular you've always wanted! You've got the time! Make Kiki proud!

Hi! Finnally found your page, and I think it's awsome, you're awsome and of course, Kiki and the Irregulars are awsome! After reading the book, I've got the feeling that there's more to find out, things who aren't written in the book. Is it? Anyway, the book has made me wanting to become a spy, and I'm going to! ^^ I've acctualy found some interesting things already, even if my hometown Stockholm isn't as interesting as New york. Thanks for a wonderful book!

(Sorry for possible spelling mistakes, I'm swedish and don't speak english that well.)

I have been thinking she is away in England with Evanna Lynch who is rumored to be cast as Kiki in the movie. I have also been thinking that because the next book focuses on Betty (right?) that she might be in Paris doing some research because Paris is the fashion capital of the world and if Betty could go anywhere it'd probably be there.we're getting really sublime weather here in new york, and friday's earth day sooo she's missing quite a bit because folks get crazy in the village on earth day!!!I love this city and I hope Kirsten/Ananka is back soon because I don't have school friday and I'm planning on conjuring up some mischief, and I'm sure she'd appreciate that.

I think she's in Hawaii. Oh good she's coming back today.I have to think about what I would do if I was entering a contest about the future and the environment... I'd do NY tossing their subway cars.And I'm decorating a binder in art and it's black with the Irregulars logo and quotes from the Is on the back.sorry long post

I saw in an interview that kirsten never do research. But I can't be sure because in another interview she said that before writing "The empresse's tomb" she was watching asiatic horror movies and where going to museums, so I don't no... Except from that, research seems as the best explanation to me. But what island??

"I think she's really in New York and is trying to see if we're falling for this. Like in book 1 with Kiki going to 'China'." I like that idea! Besides, manhattan is an island in the Atlantic ocean to.

IM: I love what you've done on your blog! You're a genius. I need to visit more often!

Kiki: Jin Ai is on the money about Book 3. But acid rain eating NY . . . maybe you're on to something there!

Anonymous #8: I agree with Raph, very inspirational post! And well put, too!

E-Star: I'm so glad you found us! I think Stockholm is a pretty amazing place. I was there for a little while a year ago, and I loved it. Maybe I'll come back to visit soon. And by the way, your English is FANTASTIC.

As for the research, I didn't have to do much for the books because I like to write about things that have fascinated me for years! I've been reading about NY history and ghosts and underground places since I was in school.

Anonymous #9: Wow, you know more about the Kiki movie than I do. ;) And PLEASE let me know what kind of mischief you end up conjuring!
